North America on Nov. 7, and the limited-edition products will be
available while supplies last.

“Whether shoppers want to add a cool new look to their gaming setup or
expand their supply of controllers with an exciting game, Nintendo
offers a great value for the holidays,” said Marc Franklin, Nintendo of
America’s director of Public Relations. “For anyone who is still on the
fence about whether to join the world of video games, we’re offering
many fun, easy, economical ways to get involved.”

The lineup of products launching Nov. 7 includes:

Red Wii Bundle: This limited-edition Wii hardware comes in
beautiful red to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the
original Super Mario Bros. game. The bundle includes New
Super Mario Bros.™ Wii and a new red
Wii Remote Plus controller, in addition to all the other included
items, like Wii
Sports™ and a red Nunchuk™ controller.
It will be available while supplies last at a suggested retail price
of just $199.99.

Red Nintendo DSi XL Bundle: This special-edition Nintendo DSi
XL bundle is also red in honor of the 25th anniversary of Super
Mario Bros. and features three iconic Super Mario Bros.-themed
graphics. The bundle comes with Mario
Kart™ DS, which looks gorgeous on the
extra-large screen. That’s in addition to the pre-loaded software of Brain
Age™ Express: Arts & Letters, Brain Age
Express: Math and Photo Clock. It will be available while
supplies last at a suggested retail price of just $179.99.

Wii Remote Plus: This new controller combines the original,
iconic Wii Remote™ controller with built-in Wii MotionPlus
functionality. The compact Wii Remote Plus controller offers players
precision motion controls all in one unit. It becomes the new standard
Wii controller, and will be available from now on in all Wii hardware
packages and bundles, as well as sold separately at a suggested retail
price of $39.99.

FlingSmash™
Bundle: The new Wii game combines the hands-on fun of tennis with
the nonstop action and instant gratification of pinball. It requires
use of the Wii MotionPlus accessory, so it seemed natural to bundle it
with the new Wii Remote Plus controller. For a suggested retail price
of $49.99, shoppers get to enjoy both the game and the controller in
one package.
